Difference between python and command line!?

Hi, I found a funny thing on our GL-865-DUAL:

I do this in RS-Term (quoted output)

Send: AT#V24CFG=3,1<cr><lf>
AT#V24CFG=3,1


OK

It sets the DSR to I/O. Apparently it works.

Then I do it in python


def Debugsend (txt):
if DEBUG:
SER.send(txt)

.....

try:
MDM2.send("AT#V24CFG=3,1\r\n") #dsr
d=getmodemanswer("",3)
except:
Debugsend(sys.exc_info()[0])
Debugsend("\r\n")
Debugsend(sys.exc_info()[1])
Debugsend("\r\n")

and get this:


SystemError
new style getargs format but argument is not a tuple

My interpretation: It seems like python wants "3,1" to be a 2 element array? Firmware is 10.00.158

Hi W.,

You need to pass the timeout value in the function:
MDM2.send(string, timeout)

So this line
MDM2.send("AT#V24CFG=3,1\r\n")
has to be replaced by something like this:
MDM2.send("AT#V24CFG=3,1\r\n",5)

Regards,
Mazen
